  • Being a fantastic drummer has nothing to do with you having the best of drums to play with but that’s is not to say having a good gear is bad but at some point in life we all just have to be used to what can bring the best out of us any giving opportunity and am glad my friend and brother did justice to that narrative

      @@adamimberti6948 But, are you not aware of what’s going on in the world? How in Ethiopia literally millions has to flee suburbs and cities to live in the bush, as the infrastructure is collapsing, and other nations throughout Africa be it the Horn of Africa, to central, countless have been forced to flee, even nations that had the infrastructure to support physical banks have failed, leaving empty buildings.
      ( if you’re a US citizen, think back to the housing market collapse, and people trying to bring their money out and banks telling them “ you can’t. You have no money. Because we used it”. Except there was no bail out, and there is war)
      Not every nation is like this but plenty are, making the situation that this guy originally has a drum kit, but no longer does much more realistic.
      As he would’ve needed to play a regular quality one to rebuild this.
      Not sure why you’re calling others ignorant when it seems to apply to you as well.
      But it’s worse, because your calling those ignorant of a very very very specific skill set, that most of the world will never ever learn ( drums) while you’re ignorant of a crisis that’s so severe it’s spreading throughout an entire continent, and that continent plays a pivotal role to the rest of the world.

    The most inspiring, the most impressive drumming I’ve experienced live was in DC in the subway. Young man with a couple of plastic pickle buckets just going at it. And with the underground echo and the wall of sound he created, it nearly brought me out of my body and I almost had a near death experience…
    But our train came and I had to leave the show just as I was about to take my last breath.

      Dude, I had a similar experience as a 20 yr old in NYC. I was on a first date with a very attractive young lady, and had indulged in some marijuana use before her and I hopped on the subway to check out a show in Brooklyn. We got off the subway car and there was a circle around this older black guy on a full drum set. He immediately grabbed me with what he was doing. I cant even explain it, it's one of the powers of music and communicating through an instrument. This guy was standing there with his hand on his chin listening as I was to the building and weaving of sounds. It was an experience, not just a groove. Like listening to a story being told on drums. And this guy watching him just shakes his head at one point and laughs, and throws some cash into the man's jar or whatever. The drummer didnt notice, because he had his eyes closed. It was so epic and unexpected. I love the power of music.

      Most people don't appreciate anything good. Lot's of talent in the world that is scuttled because of greed and stupidity... just "modern" human life. The morons and lunatics destroy everything. There are professional drummers who can't drum half as good as this kid who have 10 drum sets. In some sense though it is actually good he started this way. By starting on minimal crappy drums and learning to make them sound good means anything added is just icing. He still has a lot of work to do but I guess he is young so if he's able to continue playing he will be very good one day. He needs to work on his rudiments rather than single stroking everything. To be honest though there are tons of kids out there that could make great _____ but our capitalistic society doesn't care. It's all about $$$. So no matter how good this kid is, if he doesn't learn how money works he will never make it or end up being a slave to some corporation who will bleed his soul dry.

These days it seems that people just don't know how to give. Nothing feels better than giving someone sonething you know you have more than enough of it on your own. The whole point in creating abundance is so that everybody can get it. Giving to charity is really not the spirit of giving, especially when you know it's just a tax right off. Wealthy people don't want to give and they definitely don't want to share, its no wonder why the homeless are starting to camp out in rich neighborhoods.

      Are you seriously romanticizing this kit right now? Cause to me it looks like the one thing it is definetly breeding is tetanus.
      And maybe, just maybe, that kit is not his but just standing around, like one of those public pianos, and he can return to 'these days' everytime he feels like it.

      @@ronalddavidleindecker3358 no, I think he stated it pretty clearly. And in general I don't think he's wrong.
      That was not what I was getting at.
      What bothers me so much is that a lot of people here are assuming that that drumkit is his/the only one he has access to right now.
      In case that got over your head.

    If you listen to this without watching the video you would never imagine what he's playing on. Awesome snare sound. Very nice!

      They're not exactly bin lids, he still has symbols and a snare 😂 the bass drum is impressive though
